Hunter‐gatherer studies and human evolution: A very selective review
The century long publication of this journal overlapped major changes in the sciences it covers. We have been eyewitnesses to vast changes during the final third of the last century and beginning of this one, momentous enough to fundamentally alter our work separately and collectively. One (NBJ) from animal ethology, another from western North American archaeology (JOC), and a third (KH) from cultural anthropology came to longtime collaboration a…
Why does the Late Pleistocene archaeology of Sahul look so different from that of the Americas

Prehistory of Australia. John Mulvaney , Johan Kamminga
The essence of forgiveness
The 50th anniversary of the end of World War II inevitably reminds us about the divisions and hatreds that help motivate war and its multiple conflicts. Yet while the celebrations have emphasized reconciliation, some voices nevertheless echo ancient enmities. Furthermore, the post‐Yugoslavia warfare has been an explosion of bitterness with roots that go back to that War, and even much further. Warfare of the kind that characterized World War II a…

Education and Power in Nigeria: A Study of University Students
Social Characteristics of an Elite-in-Formation: The Case of Nigerian University Students
This study is primarily a description of the social background of students at Ahmadu Bello University in Nigeria. But it also attempts to put this data alongside comparable data that are available from other West African countries. The aim is therefore to present data on the Nigerian university and social situation, while at the same time suggesting directions which class formation may be taking in Nigeria and elsewhere in West Africa. In recent …
The Inevitability of Instability
Political instability upsets particularly those observers whose own countries have had no experience of it for many generations. They often exaggerate its effect on social and economic life and expect the activities of society practically to cease, where governments topple.

The Withdrawal of the High God in West African Religion: An Essay in Interpretation
The Puritan Denial
The technical achievements and elaboration since the sixteenth century do not comprise the whole of modern capitalism. Capitalism has been much more than that; it has been an outlook on life with its own peculiar orientation and values. To endeavour to understand capitalism as a socio-economic form, therefore, it will be of help to look at the type of character which played a fundamental rôle in the capitalistic development. There is a vast liter…
